Squalls of Snow Geese broke out around us on north side of Wildlife Drive.
They flew past the car on one side.
And then back the other way on the other. We suspected it was a Bald Eagle that was getting them all riled up. But we were not able to confirm this (I did see one do so on Friday when I was there).
There was a Ross's Goose reported with the Snow Geese the day before. The two are quite similar in appearance. Ross's Goose is rare around here.
We did not look for the Ross's goose. We did see people who were.
Should one want to find the Ross's Goose mixed in with this flock of Snow Geese, the last thing they want to have happen is for the flock to get up, fly around, and land all reshuffled, and thus need to start their scanning all over again.
Those people were not having fun.
We were, as in this snow storm we were looking for a Snowy Owl.
And we found it!

Alas, we saw no Snowy Egrets nor Snow Buntings. Maybe next time ...
